Abstract
We describe 16 infants born preterm with birth weights <1500 g and transient hyperinsulinism. The onset of hyperinsulinism was delayed and often coincident with clinical stabilization. We hypothesize that postnatal stress caused by prematurity and associated problems may contribute to development of delayed-onset transient hyperinsulinism.
